Anubis and the Boy King

Anubis was the Egyptian god of embalming and the guide of the dead. He is shown as a jackal or a man with a jackal's head. Tutankhamun ruled during the 14th century BC, and his nearly intact tomb was discovered by Howard Carter in 1922. The finds from that tomb inspired a wave of Egyptian revival in art and design. A sandstone finish resin box continues that fascination.
